My experience in learning design ranges from formal to informal education. I cut my teeth in the classroom as a Teach For America corps member teaching junior high school in the South Bronx. The Fulbright Teacher Exchange Program landed me at a German Gymnasium in Saxony. I have developed programming for educational voyages, learning games, and events. I hold a Masters in Education (M.Ed.) from Harvard. Designing project-based learning experiences turned me on to design thinking and prompted my pivot to design strategy.
